Water is one of the most destructive forces in nature, and a quick response to potential water damage is critical. Contacting a certified professional water damage restoration specialist is the safest and most expedient way to prevent further damage. Our certified water technicians stand prepared 24/7 to respond to a water emergency and to begin the restoration of your home or business.

Water damages can occur from storms including hurricanes, floods, tornadoes and more. Dealing with them becomes frustrating for most. Sometimes it’s not an outside force that causes the flooding but instead home issues such as broken pipes, leaky or frozen pipes, sink overflow, toilet overflow, refrigerator, washing machine, water heater malfunction, dishwasher malfunction. This is why professionals offer water restoration.

The Best Experts & Water Damage Equipment

With any water damage in East Ridge, it is necessary to analyze and assess the building materials and contents that are being affected by the moisture and then only we develop specific water removal and cleanup process. Our East Ridge water damage cleanup specialists employ trained personnel and special equipment that can evaluate flood damage and can identify all the problem areas that are retaining the moisture. Most often during a water loss situation, there are more materials that are wet than appear to be. Even if you feel the water cleanup is small or isolated, it should be evaluated by a flood damage restoration professional.

24/7 Flood Damage Cleanup

Time is of the essence with any water damage, as water can continue to damage your property for as long as it is present. In the right conditions, mold can begin to grow in as little as 24 hours. There are four basic components involved in water damage restoration:

1) Extraction -- During this process, Arcus Restoration will remove all excess water from the property using portable extraction units, wet/dry vacuums, and, in the case of deep standing water, submersible pumps.

2) Drying -- Once submerged, most materials absorb and retain some water that cannot be extracted. In order to completely dry these porous materials, Arcus Restoration uses the most advanced equipment available for air circulation, dehumidification, and directed heat drying.

3) Repair -- Many of the items or structures damaged by the water will need to be cleaned, repaired, and possibly disinfected. Appliances and electrical systems that have been exposed to water will need to be inspected before further use.

4) Restoration -- This phase involves the actual reconstruction of your damaged property -- flooring, drywall, paint, etc. Many "drying" companies are unable or unwilling to handle the reconstruction and would hand this phase of the job off to a separate general contractor whether you wish it or not. Arcus Restoration does not believe our job is done until your property is fully restored to its pre-loss condition.
